After the fruit is cooked, the fiber and seeds are separated from the juice through a burlap strainer. The fiber is dried in the sun and then processed for chicken feed. The juice is cooked down again to make syrup and some is reserved for ceremonial wine and some is made into jam. The slides in this collection were filmed on Kodachrome 64 film. In 2003 the slides were scanned on a Minolta Dimage Multiscan Pro at 48 bit color. Each TIFF scan was 11.68 inches by 7.88 inches with a resolution of 300 ppi. The file size was approx. 47.4 MB. In Nov 2006, the original TIFF scans were cropped, color corrected, resized to 6.08 inches by 8.89 inches with a resolution of 72 ppi and converted to JPEGs using ACDSee, v8.0.
